    I reject the notion that a shared prefix raises privacy concerns because the alternative is they all share a single IP address as they do in v4.

    Anyway, been v6 for years. Love it. It’s just easier to work with, to be honest. It took me a while to get it, but once I rotated my brain a little and stopped thinking in v4 logic then it all clicked. My ISP is insane and gave me a /48, so I have a lot of addresses.

    I know my prefix by head, something everyone is still telling me is too hard for them (skill issue). You also don’t have to remember 8 hextets, just your prefix. In my case that’s only 3, but for you it won’t be more than 4. It’s not that hard. I zero out all the hextets between my prefix and the last so my v4 and v6 addresses just look like this 192.168.78.160 and 2a05:f6c7:8321::160 respectively. Don’t have to remember two addresses when dualstacking.























  • That’s very hard to answer without knowing what type of camping it is. There is a huge range of options. On one end of the spectrum you have RV campers who bring half a house with them and are dependent on infrastructure. On the other end you have people who just go out and sleep on a bed of moss that they made that day who could probably survive the apocalypse with nothing but a shoelace at their disposal. Somewhere in-between that, but distinctly different from normal camping, there’s a whole genre of stealth camping where you’re roughing it like an urban hobo but for fun.


  • You can stretch it that far but there doesn’t exist a flatpak of pcmanfm anywhere. They’d have to have enough intimate knowledge of Linux and flatpak to build that themselves but then be so stupid as to format a question as poorly as my example?

    I should note that it went on to tell me to run some flatpak override commands which I know would break flatpak, so it’s definitely making up stuff.
